Thread: Specs on the Republic Blaster?
*ATTN DEVELOPERS*
Hey, my character's name is Jiman, novice pistoleer on Tatooine (Wanderhome server).
A master weaponsmith recently made me a republic blaster, stats similar to/better than a DX2 pistol, however the ideal range was 0. When I equipped it, I found out I was not certified to wield it, however I looked through the skill trees and couldn't find any skill in any profession that allows republic blaster certification.
Does anyone know anything about this gun? Who can use it, specs if someone is using it, etc? Requirements for certification?
Thanks....

They look like Buck Rogers guns. And yep - they can be player crafted, but there is no weapon cert for it, so no one can wield it without penalties.
I wonder if the "cert" for it will be faction related. Would be cool if it was a Rebel pistol only. Have to give the Imps one too, but still, that'd rock.
Actually, it doesn't suck, the one I had was a 3.7 speed 48-147 damage, but the ideal range was 0.
Don't think a gun that only a master weaponsmith would make would be sucky, prolly the materials used were sucky. Go for plumbum <?> iron, it works well.
Also, have no clue why a pistoleer would take a 34-176 FWG5 with 2.0/1.8 speed over a DX2 that is 87-135 (up to 178 with a powerup) 3.0 speed.....hmmm
